What team members can do
When you add a team member, you choose their Access Role. Admins and Members can:- Manage the guest list
- Send announcements and WhatsApp messages
- Handle RSVPs
- Manage travel and ID collection
- View payment and credit details
Access roles
Permission details
The table below lists what each access role can do on a wedding.- Members can manage the team. A Member can add people, change anyone’s access role, and remove people — the same as an Admin. Only give Member access to people you trust to manage the team.
- View Only is enforced when someone tries to change something. A View Only person sees the same buttons as everyone else, but any action that adds, edits, deletes, or sends is refused. They may see the message “Permission denied for role = view_only”. That means the action was blocked on purpose, not that something is broken.
- Moving referral credits into a wedding depends on who created the wedding, not on access role. Only the person who created the wedding can transfer their personal referral credits into it. See Referral Program.
- Access to your own WhatsApp number is separate. Your role on a wedding doesn’t let someone send from, or create templates on, a WhatsApp Business number you connected. That’s a separate grant, covered in Share your number with your team.

The fields on the invite screen
All four fields are required.- Name — how the person appears in the team list.
- Phone Number — the number they will log into Weddingkart with. The country code starts as India (+91); change it for a team member with a number from another country.
- Wedding Role — who the person is to the wedding: Event Manager, Bride, Groom, Relative, Weddingkart Team, or Others. If you pick Others, a Specify Role field appears so you can type their role. The wedding role is a label only — it doesn’t change what the person can do.
- Access Role — Admin, Member, or View Only. This is what controls their permissions.
Editing or removing a team member
Tap a person’s card in Teams Management to open their details.- To change their name, wedding role, or access role: make the change and tap Update. You see ”🎉 Team Member Updated!”.
- To change their phone number: you can’t edit the phone number of an existing team member. Remove them and add them again with the new number.
- To remove them: tap Delete, then confirm Yes, delete in the Delete Member? dialog. They lose access to the wedding straight away. You see ”🎉 Team Member Deleted!”.
- To leave a wedding yourself: open your own card and tap Delete. The dialog warns “You will lose access to this wedding. Are you sure?” After you confirm, the app returns you to the home screen and the wedding disappears from your list.
Real-time collaboration
All changes made by any team member are instantly visible to everyone else on the team. This includes:- Guest additions or edits
- Incoming RSVP responses
- Guest messages in two-way chat
- Travel and ID uploads
Troubleshooting
A team member can't see the wedding
A team member can't see the wedding
- They logged in with a different number. Open their card in Teams Management and compare the number, including the country code. If they have a number from outside India, make sure it wasn’t saved with +91. To fix a wrong number, remove them and add them again with the right one.
- They were removed. If their card is no longer in Teams Management, add them again.
- They haven’t logged in yet. The wedding shows only after they log into Weddingkart with that number.

Best practices
- Add team members early. Set up your team at the start of wedding setup so everyone has access before activity begins.
- Include family stakeholders if needed. If the bride, groom, or a family point of contact wants to monitor responses, add them as a team member.
- Give the least access that works. Make people who only need to watch progress View Only, so only the people running the wedding can message guests.
- Keep two Admins. A second Admin can still extend the wedding or change the WhatsApp Bot if the first Admin is unavailable.
- Divide responsibilities. Admins and Members can all send messages and edit guests, so agree on task ownership — for example, designate one person to monitor guest chat and another to track RSVPs.
